ALA Chicago 2013: What’s There to Do?
This isn’t going to be quite as comprehensive as it might be, but I tried to put together a little info sheet for folks trying to figure out what’s going on where in the children’s literary realm at this week’s American Library Association conference in Chicago. Here’s something I’ve cobbled together, though it’s missing a lot of the sessions on the floor. Still and all, if you’re looking to plan your time away (particularly your evening activities) here’s a place to start.
Saturday, June 29
Sunday, June 30
Monday, July 1
For even more fun be sure to check out Liz Burns and her schedule over at Tea Cozy.
See you soon!

Thank you for this. I’ve opened and closed the conference scheduler several times because it’s all too overwhelming. Dance party here I come! (Though that may just be big talk since normally I’m in bed by 10.)
